i thought there were like two or three degrees of irony, not one. meh.
I mean, my older relatives decided to visit Vegas when I was 14 and took me with them. I was not ready for what I saw there.
I guess it was before it got cleaned up and sanitized? by the time I went there as a kid it was all pretty tame but just annoying as fuck. idk why we stayed at circus circus but we were right next to a rollercoaster and the room smelled like it was one giant ashtray.
idk if it was before or after but it was too much, in every aspect. i remember the first thing i said was that this is a huge waste of electricity, looking at all the lit-up signs, hotels etc.
We opted to spend most of our time there going out to the hoover dam and that was fun to see the gigantic engineering, it was also funny because they talked about how Las Vegas was a podunk nothing town back when they were contracting how much electricity went where so they barely got any of their electricity from the hoover dam now
